Congo basin mammal (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hippo

(Other definitions for hippo that I've seen before include "One thick-skinned" , "One wallows in mud" , "Augustine looked after" , "African wallower (abbr)" , "one that's large and fleshy" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
